leader reid has fundamentally changed his view from two years ago when we discussed it before. the proposals that the democrats have put on the table for rules reform are modest and responsible. it is essentially this. if you're going to filibuster, you have to earn it. you have to actually be there and speak. that's not the way the rules work right now. you can object and we're done and then it is the obligation, the burden is on the majority to assemble 60 votes to cut off debate rather than on the 40 who are trying to sustain debate. a so-called filibuster. >> bill: let's go back to the real filibuster. the way it used to be. senator chris coons, thank you for coming in this morning. >> good to see you in delaware. >> bill: yes indeed. olivier knox thanks for coming in. we'll see you at the white house later today. i'll be back and tell what you the president's up to today. another busy schedule at the white house. lunch with mitt romney! how about that. >> announcer: this is the "full court press."

that's what we've got to see from nancy pelosi, harry reid and the president. where is their proposal to actually fix the problem? because raising taxes is not going to fix the problem. we've always believed that raising taxes is going to be harmful to a small businessman or woman in creating a job, and, you know, i tell this story about a cook that i met in an airport. when he told me he came up and says,ase do something about the problem in washington, we need more jobs. he said i had to take a cook's position because i couldn't find a job that best met my skill set in the construction industry. i want to go and find that job to make the kind of money that i feel i'm worth, but if you raise taxes on the small businessman or woman who is creating that job that is creating less of a likelihood that you're going to create the job. bill: you have to dance now and you're trying to thread this needle the difference between raising tax revenues and tax rates, there is a distinction i get it. do your constituents get it? are they going to look at you and say, hey you
